This week has been great! I think I have started every blog post
with that sentence... exclamation mark and all. Sorry I'm not sorry life
is going well and I can't think of any creative introductions. The
intro sentence has always been the hardest for me.
We actually had
appointments this week, which is a welcome change. I LOVE teaching. I
love it. I didn't even realize how much I loved it until we just taught
at doors for a whole transfer, not that doors are bad, that kind of
teaching is fun too.
Anyway. Miracles are
happening here and we are so excited. There have been so many moments
where we were in the right place at the right time. I love those
miracles because they help me to know that we are fulfilling our purpose
and really doing what Jesus Christ would do.
Example: We met this former investigator who has
been investigating the church for over 5 years. All we knew about her
was that her husband was against the church. She is an angel. She is one
of those people that you meet and just love instantly. I think we felt
that way because she needs it. Her husband on the other hand was out of
control. He was swearing up a storm and reading us anti-mormon literature from google.
Sister Morris and I always joke because we are like "there's our
testimony" whenever we meet people who attack what is sacred to us. Sister Morris and I are
very stubborn and don't like to be told what to do/believe. We hold our
ground pretty well without being rude or antagonistic. It is so sad to
see people that are so filled with hatred towards us. Hopefully we will
be able to help this investigator in some way. And hopefully I won't be verbally assaulted by her husband again because it's a challenge for me to be nice (haha... but seriously).
On a funny note... Sister Morris and I pulled up to
our driveway the other day and interuppted a major cat conference. There
were two cats having a major stand off. So I try pulling up and they
don't move. So we feel awkward... and I'm awkwardly pulling up the car
while these cats are low-grade growling at each other. THEN they start
moving backwards in SLOW MOTION. Literally. Slow motion cats on rewind.
Sister Morris and I were both sitting in the car stunned and at the same
time we were like "is this real life?!" It was. Finally we opened our
doors and they bolted. We then witnessed a separate crazy cat fight. Most
random 7 minutes of my life.
Ebony's baptism. She is hilarious and so fun! |
